My boss just did this, for a good reason as her partner unexpected and prematurely went into labour, but it did get me wondering in what other situation this is an acceptable thing to do

    I did this in 1997 on the day that Final Fantasy VII came out. Just straight up walked out and didn’t come back for a few days. If I’m perfectly honest, nobody noticed. I’m not sure whether this means it was acceptable or not.

      Workplaces would handle it differently. At my current one, you could do that exactly one day, two days and that’d be termination for two no call no shows. If you called in on those days then you could stretch it.
